- High evidence4 studies
Across 4 studies, 3 reported beneficial effects of vitamin D supplementation on reducing parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, with effect sizes ranging from small to moderate. The most robust evidence comes from meta-analyses in clinical populations (kidney transplant recipients and depressed patients) using doses of up to 5,000 IU/day, with effects typically observed at 8-12 weeks. One neutral finding in a bariatric surgery population suggests the effect may not generalize to all clinical subgroups.
